so my point here is that voting is nothing but cold strategy. it's not an emotional thing
the problem is that it gets so emotional
getting emotional about this topic only clouds, and is in fact used as a method to imprint learned helplessness and suppress the vote/ warp the vote
i don't believe we'll ever be in a society where it is completely unemotional
but i can say that the less emotional we make voting, the better off society will be
